CONCORD, New Hampshire — The New Hampshire House has observed a moment of silence in memory of the seven motorcyclists who were killed in a collision with a pickup truck.
The crash happened in Randolph on June 21. The crash victims were members or supporters of the Marine JarHeads, a New England motorcycle club that includes Marines and their spouses. Four were from New Hampshire, two from Massachusetts and one from Rhode Island.

Rep. Sherman Packard, R-Londonderry, said blame isn’t going to bring the victims back, “but this person should not have been on the road.”
